Lively set-To Between Mitchell and
Gallagher.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, July 29.-The great
prize ring battle between "Reddy', Gal
lagher, OF this city, and Charley Mitchell
took place here. The fight was entirely
on It's merits and both pugilists went
into the ring to win. About one thous-
called for sia rounds Marquis OF. Queens
pear, Mitchell soon following. Gallagher
weighed 1853 pounds and Mitchell about
ITO. -Four ounce gloves were used. The
fight from the beginning was hot and
continued fiercely for four rounds, when
the blows became less frequent and
effective. There were no clear knock
downs in the entire six rounds, but both
men received terrible poundings.
Except In the frat round Gallagher
acted OF the defense and Mitchell forced
the fighting. Both men did clever work
with their fists. Mitohell's blows landed
heavier than Gallagher's and he proved
himself to be the better fighter. Freddy,
made q good showing in the first against
his heavy antagonist and in the fourth
refund he had decidedly the best of the
match, but he weakened after that and
failed to follow up the advantage. In
the last two rounds Freddy kept we'll
away from Mitchell SO that the English-
man could not hit him effectively. at
the end Of the sixth around the referee
gave the match to Mitchell, Gallagher
refusing to stand up any longer before
his superior.

ARRESTED FOR KISSING.
A Curious Case Called Up before the
Court.

Court.
CHICAGO. H., July 29.-Justice Lyon
was called upon to decide the question
whether kissing in a parlor in front of an
unblinded widow was disorderly conduct.
Tho complainant was Mrs, Oleson, keeper
Of a fashionable boarding-house at 1400
Michigan avenue and she had Augustus
&. Cans arrested for kissing o 9 Of her
beautiful lady dodgers named Miss Han
sen. A large crowd Of witnesses was in
court to testify against the defendants,
and such a mass of feathefed bonnets and
silk ties has seldom crowded the Armory.
Everybody swore that 1t was not an in
frequent spectacle to behold Miss Hansen
at her room window submitting to kis-
SEES from Mr.. Cans, md one witness went
SO far as to say that the gentleman had
been observed playfully biting the iady's
ear.
There has certainly been a subdued
row in progress for some time over the
affair. Mr.. Cans made q passionate APP
peal for himself and the honor of the
lady. The young ladies living there
thought the prisoner fsacted very disord-
erly.n

proud elevation of her shapely nose. At
this the rest Uttered and blushed pro-
